Sphero, a robotic ball controlled through smartphones and tablets, was officially launched in 2011. Compatible with both iOS and Android, Sphero offers a unique and fun experience as users learn to control the robot with a tilt, touch or swing of their device.

Since its debut, more versions of the nimble orb have been launched, including Sphero SPRK+, Ollie the racing robot and Sphero Mini.

Sphero is now a popular addition in classrooms across the world, thanks to an increased focus on STEM learning. These robots provide a fun way to for kids to learn about robotics, coding and programming through the Sphero EDU app.

Explore the Sphero range

SPRK+ aims to foster a love of robotics, coding and STEM principles through play. Powered by the Sphero Edu app, you can easily learn programming, complete hands-on activities, and share your creations with the community. Navigate a maze. Program a painting. Mimic the solar system. Swim across the water. Have a dance party… The only limit is your imagination.

Sphero SPRK+ is ideal for all skill levels, from beginners drawing a path for the robot to follow, through to pros writing their own code and using advanced logic.

Equipped with Bluetooth SMART and a strong scratch-resistant UV coating, SPRK+ takes hands-on learning up a notch. Join the growing community of makers, students, instructors, and parents – all learning on the same social platform.

This tiny robot is roughly the size of a ping pong ball, packed with teeny tiny tech including a little gyroscope, accelerometer and LED lights. Drive Mini using different modes with the Sphero Mini app, or just by using your face thanks to Face Drive™, a hilarious new feature that uses your facial expressions to drive the ball.

Have fun playing Mini’s games - use the ball as a controller to shoot your way through space, race a ship through a tunnel, or rotate your ball to destroy a polygon of bricks. Advanced users can download the Sphero Edu app and program Mini using JavaScript.

A total adrenaline junkie that draws its energy from unbridled speed and extreme stunts, Ollie was built for those who would lead rather than follow.

This racing robot rolls at speeds of up to 14 mph and can be controlled from your smartphone or tablet to execute tricks. Ollie’s durable shell can tackle the toughest terrain while protecting its insides, so you don’t have to worry about crashing. Thanks to the built-in LEDs, you can drive and race at night.

Enjoy super-fast racing and pull off gravity-defying tricks with this tough little robot.
